Chapter 24: There’s a reason people hate cliffhanger
Should I...kept reading?
I must have been staying still for too long since Jade had managed to climb into my head and made a harsh dive into my face.
"Ouch!" it was perfect to snap me out of my dazed state, so I forgave the little guy for now. "Aren’t you overreacting? I was just lost in thought for a bit..."
The green eyes stared at me mercilessly, as if telling me they didn’t care and that it would keep headbutting me if I were to fall into a daze again.
Haa—damn this bird. If it knew what I just read, then my messed up mind should be understandable.
"Don’t you know I’m in a perilous dilemma right now?" I poked its chubby cheek as it chirped aggressively.
Hmm, yeah, to read or not to read?
I stared hard at the small, slightly worn-out decades-old notebook in my hand. But...I’ve read this far, which meant I already jump into the fire. So...might as well get burned?
Haha...look at me trying to reason my own curiosity.
"Sorry, Jade, your master is a trash," I patted the little bird and it flew into my shoulder, nuzzling on my cheek while giving out a sound like a whimper.
With that accompaniment, I turned the notebook page again.
